The week of over excitment... - Today
The Combine. The only players I value in this process are the small schools guys who didn't play against top level competition. The rest of them...just watch the film. Reminds me of the time the one a potential draftee DL jumped out of the pool with no aid. There were people moving him up the draft board like crazy...for pool jumping. Is there a play in the NFL for pool jumpers? lolby jemach - RamsFootballFans.com

frankly I could care less whether the league does anything...assuming it's just a prostitution charge. Part of the sting operation was human trafficking...that is unforgivable...but Kraft isn't charged with that.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com

just draft the right guy. Sign the right guy. Because...we don't have the guy right now.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
Which means we will fall off on offense... - Yesterday
As soon as you are settling on one side of the ball, you begin to slip. That's how losing organizations never sustain winning except for a year or two. Ed Reed was drafted by the Baltimore Ravens coming off a year they were the #1 defense in the NFL. Strengthen a strength. You cannot use a draft for one side of the ball...Why? Because all of them won't make the team and all of thby jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
That's not what I'm saying and I knew this would happen... - Yesterday
I want a TE...even an average TE is better than no TE. Higbee is at best a backup... Everett doesn't have the goods to be a middle of field TE...to small...not physical and this Everett is progressing talk is pbbbttt! We don't have a starting caliber TE on this roster...none. But 43, I'm not requesting a Kittle. They only way to get that is hit the lotto in the draft. Drafting undby jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
And therein lies the difference... - Yesterday
you think we have 2 good TEs. That is just...wrong. And how anyone comes to that conclusion, defies...everything. We don't throw to them because they aren't real weapons. You're going to tell me if we had a Kittle-like player, we wouldn't throw more often to him? If that's true, McVay is an idiot...and McVay is no idiot. Jared Goff needs a big target down the middle. The Rams needby jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
Agreed... - 2 days ago
McVay has to be somewhat an exception to what usually happens..except for Belicheck. How will he adjust? How will Goff develop? The fun part is we have a while to see what happens. In the meantime, we will suggest, demand to know, ask why, speculate... And that........is why we have this board and why we're here! Tis' the season...by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com

I'll quote two words..."Aaron Donald."by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
Yeah...same type of issue with Tyler Eifert... - 2 days ago
and with so many holes on defense needing to be addressed because of expiring contracts, maybe the FA route is the answer. I know people here are saying draft a lot of defense...but we need to remember...if we are starting more than 2 rookies...I don't like our chances. Drafts still need to be balanced...and we need to make certain that we are ready to replace Whitworth next year...I thinkby jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
Possibly but... - 2 days ago
the concern is injury... I dunno...maybe we get lucky. Also, he wouldn't be a "dual" type player...blocker and receiver...then again...maybe that is a thing of the past.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
Ok...Brockers is zero... - 2 days ago
and you replace him with a guy who had 10 tackles...less than 290... We need more size. He is a rotational guy. He spells a starter. Go find some beef with experience and then maybe I can agree.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
I just don't see these holes... - 2 days ago
being filled without picking up an "experienced" piece of the puzzle. I'm not buying it...he didn't show me enough to come in and step up for the absence of Suh and Brockers. He's not even 290lbs. We don't need more small ball. To Franklin's credit...he is very young. I'm not saying he's not a piece...but I don't think stacking a 290lb DL next to a 280lb DL is going to do whaby jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
The best of both worlds... - 2 days ago
a TE who can stretch the field/catch AND block...meaning he never has to leave the field! Can't we just have a Jason Witten?by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
You da' man... - 2 days ago
thanks for that. You do the scouting...I watch the films and keep my fingers crossed! And as always...it's appreciated.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
Well solves that problem... - 2 days ago
uh...not. A guy who showed basically zero impact in year 1 is now going to be a starter and solve the hole created. Who's available in the draft? The Rams cannot afford to create too many holes. They just may need to restructure a couple deals this year to create space.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
Andrew Ortenberg is a genius! - 2 days ago
Out of 19 red zone TD's, 4 were in the middle of the field. Helping the OL is important but for me, the single most productive thing we can do for Goff this off season is find him a TE.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
I think this would be a good strategy... - 3 days ago

It's been discussed and it was discussed again after the Super Bowl. Just look how Goff called plays. Why don't the Rams run more hurry up? Why didn't they during the Super Bowl? They actually had success doing it. The training wheels need to come off...period. Hyperbole schmerbole. And...just watch McVay...he has that darn chart in front of his face until right before the play.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
You mean waiting for 15 seconds... - 6 days ago
that isn't even an arguable point.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
Goff --- Time to take off the training wheels... - 6 days ago
If McVay doesn't let Goff take over and start reading defenses on his own...at least 75% of the time, Goff will never develop further. It's time to get out his ear the whole game. Defenses are catching on...and you could see it as the season ended. Notice that after the KC game...there were no more WRs running wide open like earlier in the season. NFL D coordinators aren't stupid.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
McVay refused to spread the field..and IMO it's a huge mistake... - 6 days ago
we have the personnel to do it. But, he stayed in that tight formation...21...and as it goes in the NFL, sooner or later, they figure you out. McVay needs to expand...he has the ability...but will he do it. And...the training wheels need to come off for Goff. This calling the play with 15 seconds left is also an issue. In fact, Belichick kicked his play calling arse because of it IMOby jemach - RamsFootballFans.com

Hey 43... - 9 days ago
want give me a little credit on calling this one? lol Clowney would look great next to Donald. I would be willing to give up the 1 and something in 2020.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com

more sacks means less running. If teams run less because of sacks, that is stopping the run.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
I get it... - 9 days ago
no one is going to agree with me on Everett... But he just isn't physical enough. I wish we had that chart of where players catch passes. Everett, this is as much as I'll admit, has limited talent on the outside. But, we have the outside covered...so he really isn't all that valuable. Everett is not the prototypical TE I'm talking about. He's not a guy who commands attention insiby jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
Let's wait for the tag to happen...until then... - 9 days ago
Clowney would be a great pairing with Donald.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
